8v8 Creating Overloads in the Attacking in the final Third (10 mins)

To Create Overloads in the final Third using overlapping Fullbacks - 1-4-4-2 vs 1-4-2-3-1

Setup:

  • 1 x Goalkeepers, 17 players
  • 2 teams Red x 8  Blue x 9
  • Red 1-4-4 vs 1-4-4
  • Half Pitch
  • Pitch divided into 5 channels with main focus on the outside strip

Key Coaching points: (Attacking)

  • Staggered position between FB & Winger
    • Exploit space behind the Opposition wing back and Centre back
    • Go direct, wide and over their wide CBs. Make their defenders turn and run and then midfield provide support
    • Good quality crosses into the box
    • Up-back-AROUND and Up-back-OVER will draw their players out and give our forwards opportunities.
    • GK – CB – space behind LCB: can RW drop and RB swop and then create 2v1?
    • #9 movement in the box to score goals
    • Opposite Wingers into the box
    • #10 inside the penalty area available for cut back
    • Overlaps & Underlaps from fullbacks to create the overloads
